Liverpool fullback Alexander-Arnold breaks Premier League record

58 Premier League goals have been created by Trent Alexander-Arnold.

And it is a new Premier League record for a defender.

The 25-year-old Liverpool fullback took the record on Saturday afternoon when, in the first half of the match against Burnley, he drove a corner kick into Diogo Jota, who scored 1-0.

The assist sent Alexander-Arnold alone at the top of the list, with his teammate Andy Robertson now in second place with 57 assists.

In third place is another player from Merseyside, namely Everton's Leighton Baines, who is noted for 53 assists.
